Christmas Morning

I absolutely LOVE christmas! We had a wonderful christmas day and enjoyed spending time at home all morning, just relaxing and playing with new toys! The girls gave me a little present and slept in just a little, at least they weren't up at 6:30, so that was great! I loved the look of excitment on their faces as they came in and told us that santa had come. It was also so fun this year as Peyton was able to get into it a little more.

Gotta love that Christmas Morning Excitment!

Peyton was so excited for her "binkerbell" toys.

Halli got a new hula hoop, she wasn't too great at it to start, but it's amazing how quick these kids learn, she's pretty good!

This is pretty much what Lexie did all morning, she was just overcome with excitment!:)

There's nothing like a big hunk of chocolate before 8am!

Our tree after santa came! I love thes pictures. When I was growing up my mom never put any presents under the tree until christmas eve, so in the morning it looked like the whole place was overflowing. She says they did this to hide the lack of presents, I guess it worked, cause it always looked like a ton! This is something I've continued with our kids and will probably always do, it just makes christmas morning that much more exciting.

We had a great christmas, but maybe next year santa will pull in the purse strings and not overdo it so much! Okay, maybe not Santa, but Mrs. Clause is to blame.
